Just watched the documentary "What Happened On October 29?" by David Hundeyin and his colleagues at The African Spearhead, which investigates the systemic destabilisation of Tanzania during its 2025 general elections. It provides a striking examination of modern neo-colonialism.
The investigation traces how Western capital and foreign intelligence fronts, operating through the NGO industrial complex, orchestrated an information war to manufacture a political crisis. By funding artificial opposition and coordinating social media disinformation, the objective was to force a neoliberal structural adjustment upon a sovereign nation. The geopolitical prize was the acceleration of a $42 billion liquefied natural gas extraction deal.
Understanding these mechanisms of imperialist coercion is essential for tracking how global capital subverts self-determination in the Global South.
